Juvenile children with too much of daddy's money, forget it and move on. When I come up against them I quit or only field 1 bot I'm not feeding them silver. I think most of the whales are older men with nothing to do.

What's fal abbreviation stand for? For all losers? Let me guess a top tanking clan that's on a top ten list on ISO It's l33t speak for the word FAIL. I must admit IDA is up there in the whale clan stakes too.

Not as east as it sounds. I tried 6 times before it worked. Either I was getting weps blown off or killed outright. Last battle I managed to punch out of 5 bots with no weapon losses, that were between 50 and 75% damaged.
Repair cost?
Zero.
It may also have something to do with not being killed. Might try some more experimentation tomorrow.

Yes, FAL (or F4L/F/\L), I'm looking at you.
So I'm on kill tasks, so I'm doing BR. So far this arvo 6 games. Three of them I have had the misfortune of going up against a full whale clan.
In less than 90 seconds they had invaded the spawn and we were meched out.
What possible point can there be to play this way?
It would be like me going up against level one destriers and cossacks.
I like a good fight. Those close matches that go right down to the wire.
How can this be fun for them?

i'll start the first shocktrain task tonight and i think / hope i will got him tomorrow. i've been playin 7hrs a day every day since last friday. The grind is almost over. Well... it's actually half over. The last 3 tasks, the two shocktrains and the Bulg represent a fraction under 50% of the total work. Not saying this to delight in giving bad news, just a reminder not to take your foot of the gas! For me it's half over. And I'm only aiming for the 2 Shocktrains. Just finished Carnage, the eighth prize. With only 3 to go , but the same amount of work as the first 8. Might not make it

Or players would upgrade weapons and robots to make them completely OP then sell them to noobs.
Oh wait, that's what Pixonic does isn't it?

It's like trap shooting. Normally the higher ground wins a battle. Except in War Robots, where the high ground (or in the Hover's case, mid air), is like being a sitting duck.

I cracked Champion about 5 days ago. I don't have anything above a 9. Not sure if FBGR has more to do with that. I was deliberately not going past 9 on anything but my rank increased regardless. I dont even have a Lance, let alone DIESSS Persistance pays off!

I prefer JARVIS' super Lance Pffffft - no Ancile? Not sure that could hang in the current meta. Easy fixed. They release it with a built in one. I mean why waste a heavy slot with an ancile when you can mount up a bigger seal club.

This is why there is no in game chat. Imagine how fast you could rip through tasks if every said. OK Beacons go to A, kills go to B

Can't wait to use my 2x lvl 12 mk2 Taran lvl 1 mk1 Kumiho!
Pixonic doesn't want tanking to happen. But every solution they've tried has failed. Let me hear your solution for it. Are there any loopholes? Is it realistic? Can Pixonic implement it? Can it punish innocent players? Is anybody going to complain about it? Some people think it's easy to do something. I'm in I.T and I think I see this on a daily if not hourly basis. Management will tell me, "Oh let's do etc etc, You can get that done before end of day right?" Little do they know all the aspects in I.T that need to happen for the request to work.

Over 6000 entries so far.
But, I've given it my go.
Pretty soon it's going to be us in out T34s and WW2 Shermans against the M1A1 Abrahms. We're screwed.

New Medium weapon.
Insect sprayer. Range 150m. Any direct hit kills the filthy roach robot in 10 seconds.
Ideal for Cossacks using hit and run tactics

I just played a game on Dead City. There was a player named Mercyful Fate. CAN YOU BELIEVE IT!!! I was outraged!!! I immediately tanked out so I could report it to Pixonic as soon as possible as an offensive name. Who spells merciful like that!!?? The horrrroooorrrrrr!!!!! Actually I didn't tank. We kicked their butts though! Sigh, only 26 wins to go on Carnage. I must GRIND!!

I was on Yam the other night and there was a group of three reds and three blues doing the beacon swap dance on centre. I think I scored 11 that round. It seems to happen a bit more in the past few days. I'm on wins at the moment. Was playing on Dreadnought tonight with the reds down by a mile. The win was imminent. A Cossack and a HeyCheese were doing the dance on one of the side beacons. I basically went to watch as was a blue Lance already there. A red spawned and started firing incoming Molot rounds at them. Myself and the Lance basically blocked his fire so they could grab a few more before the clock wound down.

My last Gold Chest got me 6400 Hover components. OK, cool. That's a start.
The "Daily Deal"saw me buying a further (I think) 300 Hover components and about 900 Storm components per day, for 300 WSP Yesterday the deal was available for 1000 WSP, but for 360 Hover, and 1430 Storm components. I basically only needed one more buy (today), but the deal is only available for 300 gold.

And I said, well, it is a dismissive term, but who would use it in spoken word? It would be like saying LOL as a spoken word.

I like the Shocktrain wind up noise. When they are are firing though (and the scourge) it's so loud it drowns out everything else. Which is really annoying...

There's plenty of ideas left if you are going 3-tier on all the weapons. How about a med or light energy shield? Or the ultimate annoyance. Heavy Hydra!
Going out of the box and back to Duke Nukem, a freeze ray, or the shrink ray (got 15 seconds or so to stomp on them)

Once this event starts nearing it's end, the Shocks are going to proliferate. I am on the way to get two. Just not sure what to mount them on yet

They won't stop though. It's like I always tell my children, "people who have no tangible achievements to be proud of will cling to something else to be proud of". Massive car stereos, Grammar Nazis, loud motorbikes, graffiti, the dude that recently harassed this forum ... the motivation is all the same. Oh, I'm sorry, but The Dude should be capitalised:

Well my hearing is shot from real gun noises so that might explain part of why I couldn't hear anything when fired. Agree about the Scourge being extremely loud. The exact opposite of the Trident. I had it up to Level 5. Saw no smoke trail. Is it a large one or a tiny one? It's possible that other things going on might have obscured it. Hit recognition I had none. No X and no damage bar movement. It's possible that movement of damage bar was so minute I didn't pick it up. If a Level 6 Trident is barely making a dent in health as Mav said (and I don't doubt him), then it's a big waste of Workshop Points. I earned a Trebuchet from the event grind, and it can do visible damage at level one. I'm kicking myself for not buying a Trebuchet instead of that POS Trident. They cost the same in Workshop Points. The smoke trail is reasonable. But it goes in a straight line so it's not a big arc like, well, pretty much every other rocket or missile. I was getting the X, but with so little damage there was no health bar movement. My hearing is not the best either. Same reason. I wonder what they do now for OH&S in the Army? Everyone wearing hearing protection in the field? We only wore them on the range.
